Industrial zone cracks down on emissions
Print Edition
SHANGHAI’S Jinshan District is building a monitoring center to ensure that emissions from companies in its industrial zone meet standards and that pollution is reduced.
An official with the zone’s management committee said construction will start soon and monitoring vehicles will also be employed.
The Jinshan No. 2 Industrial Zone near Hangzhou Bay, home to about 190 chemical companies, started operation in 2014. The zone administration said it has given them a number of tasks to be completed before the end of the year to reduce pollution and make the zone more environmentally friendly.
Twenty-four companies have plans to renovate equipment to cut the emission of volatile organic compounds, a major source of air pollution.
Among them, Qunli, a joint venture involved in agricultural chemical research and development, has invested more than 5 million yuan (US$760,000) to upgrade equipment to purify emissions and sewage water.
Monitoring sensors will be installed at 29 companies which might produce VOCs this year, the committee said.
No chemical or industrial companies will be admitted to the zone in future, the committee said. It will only introduce those involved in service industries.
Companies which fail to reach standards will be shut, the official said. Eight of 28 companies responsible for the worst pollution have already shut down.
